Lyrics The Spirit Lying Dormant - Lou Heffernan

Life went on in stride passing like the whisper deafened ears denied
My dream only to survive

Numb to this demise you helped me bridge the distance to the me inside
For once I felt I was alive

'Cause you could see (you could see) the
spirit lying dormant within me (within me)
You took a chance and found a way to coax my spirit from the gray
(you coaxed my spirit from the gray)
And like a dove (just like a dove) the spirit
lying dormant soared with love (it soared with love)
Beyond the walls that once encaged free to
live (free to live) and love (and love) and play

How could you have known that deep
beneath this fortress I was more than stone
My dreams are finally free to grow.

'Cause you could see (you could see) the
spirit lying dormant within me (within me)
You took a chance and found a way to coax my spirit from the gray
(you coaxed my spirit from the gray)
And like a dove (just like a dove) the spirit
lying dormant soared with love (it soared with love)
Beyond the walls that once encaged free to
live (free to live) and love (and love) and play

And dream and soar to galaxies yet to be explored
